The R2D2-esque "beep/whistle" in "All The Beautiful Worlds"

In regards to different vocal takes making her sound different, just take a listen to the first verse of "Watch Chain" - then immediately skip forward to the second verse. It's very different - 2nd verse is much crisper and bright - I think it's because it's a different mic in a different setting. Although not as crisp and clear, the first verse vocal is so nice when she sings "lovely soft faded jeans" - I definitely see why they kept that. I just can't figure out why they didn't equalize her retake vocals recorded later to better match what they sounded like in the Nashville studio just for consistency-sake.
